HC Deb 15 May 1930 vol 238 cc2034-5
36. Mr. REMER

asked the Home Secretary what steps are being taken to reorganise the taximeter-cab inspection department of the Metropolitan police to prevent the state of affairs recurring as disclosed in a recent disciplinary inquiry?

Mr. CLYNES

In the case to which the hon. Member refers, the charges related to incidents occurring in 1928 and early 1929, which have only now come to light. Measures were taken last year which should prevent the possibility of a recurrence of similar incidents, but I hope that, for obvious reasons, the hon. Member will not press me to disclose them in detail.
